Research on high precision tracking control technology of airborne laser weapon

The airborne laser weapon system is a kind of directional energy weapon system, which has a higher tracking accuracy requirement than other weapon systems, so that the traditional PID control cannot meet the requirements of high precision control. A compound axis servomechanism with preview model was used to build a complete simulation system, including detector model, fast mirror model and time delay model, etc. In order to improve the control accuracy, the active disturbance rejection control algorithm and the compound axis control structure were combined. The simulation system built in the article was verified by the function verification test of some transport disturbance data collected in practice. The results show that the tracking accuracy of the system is 5.16 μrad, which is 25 times of the traditional PID control. At the same time, a virtual battlefield scene was given, which was verified by the simulation system built in this paper. The tracking accuracy of pitch axis and yaw axis were both less than 10 μrad.
